    Didn't even notice the issue to be honest.

    Daniel Harris is tough to listen to.

    Focus was more on Utd really. Think most people are tired of this Mourinho saga at this stage

    Ken just can't resist. I think Mourinho has been boring since Chelsea sacked him, it mystifies me why Ken can just not let it go. We all know it's going to trundle on for a little while longer and then he'll get the boot, I don't know if minute dissection is really worth it.

    Most in the media are revelling in his downfall, quite likely due to his arrogance and treatment of them along the way.

    Nope. I'm enjoying it on an almost daily basis.

    Fair enough, but everything he says is very transparently pathetic and predictable nowadays. I don't know how much utility there is in covering every attempt at deflection that the man comes out with - we can all nearly recite whatever guff Jose is going to come out with after every result. It's like listening to people recite the hours on the clock by now.

    Fully agree. Just stating that a large number of the media are enjoying it, so will stick the proverbial knife in at every opportunity. Its been rinse and repeat coverage for most of the season.

    I don't know why anyone is surprised that the Mourinho experiment has turned out the way it has.

    Some of the discussion today was trying to fathom why the defence has turned so putrid this season. It's Mourinhos attitude and demeanor. How many players has he thrown under a bus at this stage? That kind of management is not sustainable and you eventually end up sapping whatever confidence your players once had out of them.

    It's pretty boring at this point talking about United/Mourinho. I'd like if they started to look at a few other clubs that don't get a quarter the airtime but are performing well above their budgets. Maybe try eek out what decent managers do to keep those clubs performing above their station.

    He's a dose.

    The audiobed about Ken's bike is the best, for my money.

    That or the Danish one with the shots fired and the heinous insults from that Danish podcast fella.

    I cant decide between the bike robbery and ode to babushka

    Some good contenders but Ken describing people taking laughing gas is the best by a mile.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,436 ✭✭✭Beersmith

    Of course it is. Its the only one i can stand to listen to a few times. It isn't winning in the poll though.

    The danish one is so annoying, too many stupid sounds.

    Agreed

    And for me the Sexton drop somewhat back in second


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 849 ✭✭✭blackwave


    My overall favourites are the train during the euros in France. Close second is the Henry/arsenal fan tv to Sinead O'Connor. For this year Ken's bike been stolen is my pick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,866 ✭✭✭Raoul


    I feel like they put three of the Ken ones in the same group so as the final wouldn't just be all Ken.

    Think we're going to have another hour of Mourinho today...

    The last hour of him for a long time

    Hopefully.

    I'd expect a special pod release on it separately to what was originally scheduled.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,795 ✭✭✭dulux99


    Surprised to see nobody mention The Cranberries/Limerick all Ireland Jingle. That one is genuinely emotional, and I'm not even from Limerick!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,775 ✭✭✭✭Gbear


    Has to be one of two Russia ones... Fresh and Clean is a particular favourite.

    I think it's because Mourinho seems to genuinely be a cúnt too. The calling out players, taking credit for wins, blaming individual players for losses, pretending to have no money, talking about past wins, the way he treats other managers, the doctors at Chelsea incident, his horrible style of football even though he has spent so much etc. Makes it all the better when he's not doing well. Personally I really dislike Mourinho, so I enjoy ken ripping into him

    Wifi wánkers has been overdone. It was funny at the start. But sick of that Danish one. Taxi Driver/Kens Bike is the best imho, it makes perfect sense and has a good flow to it. The Danish one is all over the place.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,252 ✭✭✭✭Arghus


    I'll give Ken today on the Jose front, but hopefully he can stop talking about him now.

    Great calls and would have to agree. Other classics for me are Rhianna and John Delaney, Lana Del Ray Keano and all time fave is probably Brian Jonestown Massacre Chicago All Blacks. Mark Horgans finest work!
